CWE-20  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 libav to version 6:10.4-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libav package and not the libav package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

The mm_decode_inter function in mmvideo.c in libavcodec in FFmpeg before 1.2.1 does not validate the relationship between a horizontal coordinate and a width value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access and application crash) via crafted American Laser Games (ALG) MM Video data.
